    My New Toy

    Went to the PO and lo and behold. A grin came across my face. Couldn't wait to get home and put it together. The gun is a Factory Unaltered AA easy open frame with a factory unaltered AA 357 Max 10 " barrel. It wears a Wanre 4 hole, weaver style base, with Burris Signature rings and a Brand New Bushnell Elite 2-6X 32mm matte black Handgun Scope. The furniture is from High Plains and features a Pegasus Grip (been wanting to try one of these for years) and 2" wide flat bottom target forearm in Saphire Laminate. I think the purple pops with the AA frame. Have 200 rounds of Remington 357 Max brass and will start load development shortly. Have some AA1680 I am going to play with.
    Thanks for reading and feel free to offer any "Pert Load" you might have. I have some 125,140,158, and 180 grain JHP to experiment with.
    Thanks for reading and any and all input is welcome

    Enjoy life but remember, we are only practicing for something better !!

    I may have to get into the contender game now that's a neat example

    Nice! There are alot of max addicts on single actions forum. They even designed there own bullet for it. Many pet loads over there.
    Due to the price of primers, warning shots will no longer be given!

    The grip looks interesting. I have not seen them before. How do you like them? I have large hands (2X gloves are OK but 3X gloves are better) so some of these type grips don't work for me.
